Meet Aviva

Hi! I’m Aviva, owner of Aviva Gittle Publishing.

Aviva holds up “Kitten & Snake” part of the “Kitten and Friends” series for children.

Welcome to Gittle! Here at Gittle you can learn about all our great stories for children. We’ve got some crazy characters — like a boy who bounces to the moon and a kitten who can charm a snake.

I wrote my first children’s book in 1995. Back then, you needed an agent or a publishing company to get your stories into the hands of children. Self-publishing and companies like Amazon and Apple have opened up the world for writers and readers.

Books you can trust.

Aviva Gittle books are stories parents can trust and children love to read. Over and over again. Family-friendly themes that teach not preach. The Kitten and Friends series shows your child how to be a good friend. Moon Jump is about using your imagination to make your dreams come true. Mary’s Magic Word Story & Activity Book helps children understand the importance of saying “please” and “thank you” — and sharing with others.

Stories in Spanish

Most of Aviva Gittle Publishing’s books have been professionally translated into Spanish. Readers of Spanish-language books will feel like the stories were originally written in their native language. Salto lunar, Gatito y Mariposa, and Gatito y Koi. Many more stories are on the way!

Aviva Gittle admits she’s a bit of a late bloomer to the world of writing children’s books. In fact, it took her 18 years to publish her first children’s story, “Mort the Fly.” Once Mort took flight, so did Aviva’s passion and creativity. In the next three years, she published over a dozen children’s books — including her beloved Kitten & Friends series. As the proud Nana of bilingual grandchildren, most of Aviva’s books are available in English and Spanish.
